I rooted my device when the device could first be rooted, then I got the Ice Cream Sandwich because it wasn't available at my location yet, and now I unrooted it and can't root it again. I am posting here and not the development section because I haven't posted 10 post yet. Please Help. AND NOW THERE ARE FLASHING COLOR LIGHTS!!!

as i understand that you upgraded your system using the pushed update and not using the pre-rooted ICS... if that the case then i'm sorry to say that you've lost ur root and u cant do it again because the patched they exploit in the last release... until now there is no way to root ICS for tablet S
sorry for my english :silly:

Hey Guys,
I've been away from the Fascinate for several months but I'm back. I am familiar with rooting, Odin etc.....
My question is, I want to root but not install a custom rom/kernel yet till I get myself refreshed. So what is the easiet way to this now??
Firmware version - 2.2.1
baseband version - EB01
kernel - 2.6.32.9
When I check for software update on my phone it says no ne update is available
Not a development topic. Should be under question and answer forums. This question was just answered in q and a recently. Jelani993 posted the question. There is a link to a tutorial by droidstyle within the first few posts. It is an excellent tutorial. Odin stock EH03 which can be found on these forums. It is Android 2.35. It is the latest update stockwise. Root that one.

This is not development...please have this moved to q&a section. Then go to the general section, find my guide and refer to section 5.
I can't wait for the fascinate to finally get root so that real development can start!
Thanks guys - sry for posting in wrong spot - heading to q&a

What has locked got to do with it ???
Your provider of the phone as defined by the product code updates via KIES .
Or join a forum like XDA and flash stock Samsung ICS rom .
jje
Ask your carrier.
Phone running carrier-branded stock firmware getting firmware updates via Kies it's entirely up to them when they release it after receiving it from Samsung. My carrier got it 7 weeks ago & still hasn't released it (not that I'd want to use tho).
Root with superoneclickroot & stop being a *****!

Half a brain would search the forum as this question has been asked ten thousand times with the usual reply flash a stock GB rom from the stock roms thread via Odin or restore your saved original rom .
Once restored sell SGS2 and buy a Nokia .

ok where do i find that from mate?
Hi everyone,
This is faakher. I'm from Pakistan. I'm new to android. I got a new phone Huawei Honor with Gingerbread 2.3.6. I have some questions to be asked:
1- What is root?
2-Is it safe to upgrade my os to Ice cream sandwich? (I found an update on Huawei's website)
3-If I upgrade my os to ice cream sandwich, is it possible to reinstall gingerbread 2.3.6?
Please guide me I'm a newbie in Android community.
Welcome to xda. First read http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1466228 rooting is when u get super powers (just like the spider guy) to do whatever u want with d phone. U can remove unwanted system apps. And it's d basic requirement to flashing roms, mods and stuff .
Yeah. Upgrading to Ics is safe.
Buddy first rule of xda is to search and read as much as u can. If you dont find it, then post a topic.
and for rom queries please find your particular device's forum in xda.
by the way, in simple way, root is gaining the access of ownership of everything. U can get high performance from ur device after rooting. Just read as much as u can.
if your device manufacturer is providing the ics update, then u can upgrade to it easily.
for reverting back to stock u have to root first then install stock rom from zip, or there are many methods, just read in your device's forum.

Good work having a real go at it yourself, but honestly, make life easy for yourself & use the guide in the thread stickied near the top of Q&A. You'll have it done in minutes.

that's my problem, that thread dosnt tell me which one i need, or where to get it. i've looked at dozens of guides and cant find one that help me. the only thing that i seem to have a problem with is which one i should use, because i cant find the XWKF4 one.
Because you're running ancient GB firmware, update your firmware to ICS or JB first, then root. Instructions/links in that same thread.

Did you look at Doomlords easy rooting kit.I think that does it.Also search for Spocky's unlock app.

that tool said that i dont have permission, which means its not rooted? why do i need a rooted device to root it? or im missing something? i did every step on that too...
edit: i had old version. but cant find new one (4.0.3) for SGS2, only xperia
I cant remember if Spockys tool needs to be used with rooted ICS or higher.
But if your planning on doing other things with your phone,youd be better starting off where Mistahbungle said(ICS).
Then you just root that and unlock.You read about using pc odin and get the ICS rom from sammobile.Then just flash a rooted siyah kernel,or something similar.
